FROM THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE

Your Nominating Committee is looking for interested club members to help make your club grow. It’s election time for 2017 Board positions.

Would you…

  • Enjoy new activities?
  • Attend informative lunches?
  • Give a few hours of your time to make all of this happen?

Volunteering can be rewarding and an excellent way to make new friends and stay active. Candidate applications for the 55+ Club Board positions are available at the DRS Community Center M-F and at the Satellite Beach Civic Center on Mondays 9:00-11:00am at Bingo.

Or feel free to call a Nominating Committee member. Shirley Pinard 321/806-0822; JoAnn Fisher 321/368-3817 or Thelma Hanel 321/613-5661. The deadline for application returns is Sept. 16th.

WELCOME BACK 55+ MEMBERS AND FRIENDS!

Be sure to check your newsletter calendar because schedules may have changed and we don’t want you to miss a thing!

I am very happy to say several members have come forward to share the responsibility of planning the Club’s future. Thank you! We must have new ideas in order to grow so it’s wonderful that so many people care enough to get involved. But there is still room for you, so come on! What are you waiting for? Start by coming to the board meetings the 3rd Wednesday at 9am at the DRS.

Lots of exciting things are planned for the fall; many many trips both long and short! Hope to see you at the Bucket List lunch, that should be really interesting.

Please continue to support our sponsors, they are the greatest! Thank you all!

SCAMS

Insertion_Sept_P2There have been posts on social media regarding two men traveling in a blue Ford Expedition, approaching residents at their home in an attempt to solicit business for environmental products and in some instances storage units in Palm Bay.

Four police agencies in Brevard county have received complaints of this group of between two to four men, going door to door, behaving in a pushy manner and asking either to be let into the home or asking the resident to step outside the home to talk about the product they are promoting.

They have been reported to offer an American flag while pitching their product, and wear green hospital style scrubs as well. There has been no criminal activity reported regarding this group, however they do not possess a valid City of
Satellite Beach solicitor permit at this time and are not authorized to go door to door.

If you have any information or if you encounter any suspicious activity, please call the Satellite Beach Police Department at 321-773-4400.
